Abstract
High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is an essential component of the diagnosis and assessment of patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). In some cases, a diagnosis of ILD can be made solely based on a multidisciplinary discussion of HRCT findings and clinical evaluation. HRCT findings also inform prognosis and may influence treatment decisions. It is essential that high-quality HRCT images are obtained using parameters for optimum spatial resolution. Key terms used to describe HRCT findings should be used consistently among clinicians. Radiologic information should be included as part of the multidisciplinary discussion of patients with ILDs during follow-up.
